We weed out those we do not wish to bring along with us long before they have the opportunity to join the guild, let alone come along on a raid. If we are on content and booting someone due to DPS, then we failed as a guild literally months before, when we didn't immediately dismiss that player as not being suitable in terms of their outlook on the game and on personal improvement. Because whether you like it or not, that is what most top end guilds (outside of WoW) recruit based on. I don't give a shit how good you are at the game, I give a shit how good you want to be at the game.

Post translated Dps meters/trackers are about me so they need to be in the game because I want them. Devs need to listen to me to make me happy. Also ME, I'm important me.

Someone good at multi-tasking and observant isn't going to be able to keep track of thousands of abilities and effects. If we assume Ashes combat will be good (deep and complex), then it will literally not be possible to keep track of everything. I mean, top end guilds in WoW often have the raid leader not even taking part in the raid, they have so many other things to keep track of - and that is in a game that I don't consider the pinnacle of top end content, and also has some of the most complex trackers for any game. It is also content that Intrepid have said they would like to compete with.

Just find someone that notices when people are messing up.
Get observant officers. Have them lead groups of 8.

You are not a Leader you are a Log reader.

I could see you in an affiliated PvP focused guild, however. I'll be definitely attempting any and all content in the game. Some sooner rather than later, but definitely all. But I'll be playing on EU servers so I wouldn't be in your guild either way

That is essentially the end of it. If you actually know what a tracker does, you wouldn't care that they exist. You may not want to use one, but you basically just wouldn't care at all if others used them.
